Oh no, this can’t be happening.
Remember last week when Birmingham confirmed one of the best signings for some time in Ivan Sunjic? Remember when the fans went mad that they were able to pick up a player of his quality?
Well, we may have jumped the gun on all that. Turns out that the deal isn’t 100% over the line yet. According to Brian Dick and Richard Wilford, the Croatian is still waiting on international clearance before he can pull on the blue shirt.
Whilst it was known when the deal was announced, the fact we are so close to the opening game of the season against Brentford and this still hasn’t been sorted out is slightly nervy, even if it is ‘practically done’
Nervy though is probably an understatement based on what Blues fans have been saying on Twitter. Given the club’s recent history with the authorities, this news was enough for Birmingham fans to start getting anxious. What next? Is Moha Ramos going to get food poisoning?
Let’s ???? it does we need him ????KRO

Even if we do get a striker in today or tommorow they wouldn’t have clearance to play by the time we play Brentford, especially if there from abroad #kro

I think I finally understand what Mario Balotelli was going on about with the ‘Why Always Me’ thing from years ago.
